I’ve been studying and teaching Tai Chi for over 25 years and my art has evolved with it. 

After college my creative outlet was fulfilled by being in or on the ocean or in the mountains with constant stints of travel. The practise of Tai Chi demanded something else from me and another creative outlet which was my art.

Tai Chi can open your right brain and intuitive abilities and I became a sponge for information which fuelled long shut down inclinations and abilities and I soon immersed myself in art, holistic therapies, psychic studies, and alternative ways of thinking.

My travels had started in the early 80s fresh out of college. I had a bucket list of countries and places to visit. Having spent some childhood years on a farm I thought I might never step into an airplane - how wrong I was!

Travel exposed me to many cultures where I gradually expanded and deepened my understanding of life and knowledge in the healing arts.

My experiences in the oceans and mountains has given me a deep respect for Nature and my relationship with it as has Tai Chi which grounds and connects us with its rhythms.

I look back on my youth in disbelief sometimes, and apologise now to anyone I offended! I had and still have a great deal of energy and enthusiasm which sometimes might have been better directed and benefitted from more flow. 

From a coup in Caracas, being lost in Namibia, frostbitten in Greenland, nearly ice bound in Antartica and more recent adventures in Kashmir - I appear to have survived. 

Based in Newquay, Cornwall I now divide my time between art, therapy and Tai Chi interspersed with travel when the planets align.
